Accessibility and D2L: Can You Read This if You're Blind?

Overview This paper reports on the accessibility and usability of the Desire to Learn (D2L) course management software, version 7.4.x. The authors looked at what they determined would be the most widely widgets used: the course list page, contents, calendar, discussions, and e-mail. They have shared this information with D2L and many of these problems identified here are slated to be fixed in future releases, and, therefore, may be resolved by the time of the conference in August 2005. They browsed the Web using Microsoft's Internet Explorer version 6.0 with SP2 and the AIS Web Accessibility Toolbar installed, and with Mozilla's Firefox using the Web Developer and Tidy extensions, and the Accessibility Extensions for Firefox from the University of Illinois.
